I remember yelling at the tv screen during Witt's skate. I was upset (I was very pregnant at the time. I don't usually get irate, just irritated.) I was remarking that she should skate or get off the ice. I was convinced the judges wouldn't buy it. Then, they bought it.

And so did Albert Tomba... (I lofl'ed seeing his face after Kat finished the program, obviously little skating going on in the program didn't matter to him at all )

best one so far

Elena Sokolova:
"Forgive me for saying so but I don't think she's burst onto this ice at all. I think she's out of condition. I think she's been slow, she hasn't been pushing. She gets some good jumps in but it really isn't very much trained for an Olympic kind of competition, I don't feel."

Sokolova:
"Gosh, you know I didn't see any redemption being sought even when she was in the warmup or when she was coming out of the rink. I kind of feel that the music is blah, there's no stretch in the arms and the legs, there was no tension in the program. Um, I'm sorry to be so negative but, uh, that's the way I saw it."

Yan Liu:
"One thing I wish she'd do is tie up her shoelaces and not leave them hanging out."

Susanna Poykio:
"Just not a with it performance in any way, shape, or form. That's very sad to see the entire, so to--souffl&#233; unsouffle."

Sarah Meier:
"As the saying goes, there was more choreography in that landing than there was in a lot of the rest of the program."

And a bonus quote from Tom Hammond on Silvia Fontana:
"Scores don't really matter but here they are."
